I am an emeritus professor and former Director of the School of Art at Bowling Green State University where I taught art and photography for two decades. Prior, I spent seventeen years at Syracuse University where I also served as the Head of Photography and Chair of Art Media Studies.

My research interests include: large-scale digital montage, design and construction of experimental cameras, and photographs on glass. Conceptually my creative work, narrative fantasy, masquerades as reality with an emphasis on existentially absurd fictions and examines a wide spectrum of subject matter–––everything from dysfunctional relationships to marginalized populations to the deterioration of the body.

My series, "The Temple of Wonders" is currently on exhibition at the SohoPhoto Gallery, in New York city.
